2019 Haiti Mission Inc. Silent Auction

Sponsorship Opportunities

Next year will be the 10th Annual HMI Silent Auction.  By the grace of God and thanks to many generous donors, we have raised a total of $611,050 over the past nine years.   Since 2013 we have dedicated all the silent auction money to our Home Building Project. 

The homes cost $7500 and we dedicate the silent auction money as a matching donation to build a home.  So for every $3750 donated to HMI for homes, we take $3750 from Silent Auction proceeds to complete the funding.  We are on schedule to build home #150 by April of 2019 which represents a total of $1,125,000 invested in home construction.

In order to reach our goal of building 25 homes per year we need a total of $187,500 of which $93,750 is provided from the Silent Auction.

Last year was our third attempt at raising money through sponsorships prior to the auction.  Thanks to many generous sponsors we raised a total of $105,795.

Last week we returned from a mission trip to Haiti with a group of 14 from New Orleans and Morgan City.  We all were blessed to personally witness the impact these homes are having on the families of recipients and the overall community.    

We hope to raise a minimum of $60,000 through sponsorships and the balance through the sale of silent auction items.  The good news is that we have already raised $15,000 through the Title Sponsor!

Thanks to all of you who have helped us in the past.  Your generous support has helped many poor families we serve.  I would invite you to visit the HMI website and read about some of the home recipients and view the before and after pictures www.haitimissioninc.com.  Our construction team of approximately 35 members are currently finishing homes #139-140 in November. The need for homes is endless for the desperately poor families we serve.  Our goal is to lift one family at a time from misery to poverty, but we cannot do it without your help!

Please consider helping if you can and take the time to send the information to others who may be able to help.  We would like to have commitments no later than the middle of January 2019 so that we can include the names of our sponsors on information pertaining to the event which is scheduled for March 18, 2019 at Ellendale Country Club.  Sponsor donations will not be due until March 2019.

God Bless and Pax,

David & Laura Fakier

When Saint Mother Teresa accepted the Nobel Peace Prize she said: 

She would use the money to “make homes” for many people who had no home.  “Because I believe that love begins at home, and if we can create a home for the poor…I think that more and more love will spread.”
